adwords2.jpgIs there a better keyword research tool that exists that is better than adwords?

Not only will adwords tell you the words that are related to the topic you’re searching for, they also tell your exactly how many searches were done today for the keyword, and more.

Related Keywords And More

Type your subject into the adwords keyword tool and they will tell you other terms people search for that are related to your keyword.

You can also use the tool to find out what keywords a website uses by choosing the “Website content” url.

You can then drill down by choosing any of the returned keywords and putting them back into the search box.

PLUS - from the “Choose columns to display” you can see the google trends data or “search volume trends”, average CPC, and more.

Tell Me Exactly How Many Searches Were Done TODAY For The Keyword

It’s real simple to see how many searches are being done RIGHT NOW for a given keyword. Not an estimate, not a trend, but exact numbers.

Simply create an adwords campaign and set your bids high enough to reach the front page. The adwords statistics will tell you exactly how many people are putting that search term into the box.

The AWESOME Thing About Adwords

The biggest hurdle this month to me learning adwords is I get distracted because I am repeatedly finding keywords that are getting a bunch of impressions in adwords yet when i look in the google search results there is little to NO competition for the keyword. Seriously.

So that awesome thing about adwords is it is an AMAZING keyword research tool for you seo efforts.

Launch a campaign, get some data for a day or two, then go build regular blog pages about the long tail keywords with the best stats.

Sorry 45n5, But that costs me money

If done correctly it won’t cost you much. Kill your keywords that are costing you a bunch. And let your long tail keywords soak up the adwords impression data.

Also read this article: Gaming Google Quality Score. If you aren’t getting any impressions (like me last week) I recommend the “player” approach.

But High Trafficked Keywords Have The Most Competition!

Adwords - The Best Keyword Tool On The Planet

Can you tell me a better keyword research tool than Adwords? Not only does it tell you what words people use that are related to your topic it also gives you historical and real time data about the keywords.

I wouldn’t give a dime to any keyword research tool until you’ve got yourself an adwords account.
